Big ones



So I got some nice deep tunes for you today, more in the Burial-esque mold. I say this because most people think of Burial when they think of deep dubstep/2-step music. People like Joy Orbison are creating a real stir now with their 2steping beats and deep synths. I've also got some other stuff to throw in....

It's a bit of a mixed up post, consider it a list of things i'm really liking at the moment that I recommend you go and buy....(Some are not full quality to protect the artist and the blog)

Sbtrkt - Rekorda
Zarif - Over (Breakage 3AM Remix)

Ellie Goulding - Under The Sheets (Pariah Remix)

Synkro, Faib - Inhale

nice deep stuff from the Manchester based Synkro



Chase and Status - Love's Theme
this one has been around ages. I've had a bit of a drum and bass revival of late.....


Redlight - Kid Soliders : this is too big, Redlight aka Clipz has released an ep called Lobster Boy, got to buy it it's huge










Skream - What Did He Say

new Skream, always big

Roska - The Sheppard

this man is killing it on in the UK Funky scene

enjoy

Wanna get down & Dirty then give Jakwob a call


My mate Tim loves Jakwob so thought I'd do a little post showing his amazingness and why he is so popular(Not Tim but Jakwob). Jakwob is from Lincoln but resides in London & has been killing it in the Electro/ Dubstep scene. I say Electro/ Dubstep because thats normally the crowd he attracts, the kind of indie/dance seensters. I personally do not belong to this crowd but do love all forms of dance music in their own way.

 The attractiveness of Jakwob is very obvious from outset; He keeps the melodies of tunes, and  the introductions, and then drops in some pretty grimey basslines. So onto the tunes in question.

 First up is a remix of the very popular 'confusion girl' by Frankmusik. It's a very poppy tune so I was intrigued about how Jakwob could make it wobbly. He succeded's very well though in creating, not a deep drop, but an understated wobbly nuance. It works well and is more of one for the ipod not so much for the club.


Next up is a an M.I.A remix that delivers not a dubstep monster but more of  a trembling housey number. It's enjoyable although lacking in allot of energy I feel. It could of done with a bigger drop and more pronounced buildup. This is certainly one for the indie kids.


The next remix is definitely one of my favorite tunes of this month, and oddly it's a Killa Kela remix. It keeps the original songs melody at the start & then drops into a rugged but fun bassline. The lyrics give it a nice sunny feeling while the buildups into the drops bring out it's sooty nature. Anyway have fun with it.


Last up is the obvious one, Ellie Goulding. It's definitely been the tune of the year for many avid music fans. It's certainly a favorite of mine. It's easy to tell why; It's got nice lyrics, a good buildup, a killer drop and the groggiest of basslines. Pretty intoxicating stuff, it's best heard on big speakers & very VERY loud.



Oh also as an added treat would give you this random Dubstep remix I found of an Enter Shikari tune. Personally I don't like that kinda music but the remix is pretty good, anyway enjoy;

Going All Starry Eyed...

Take a look at the true indie electro pop princess Ellie Goulding. She's beautiful and has a voice of gold. Her song Starry Eyes has not yet failed to give me a satisfying tingly feeling of joy every time I listen to it. She is definitely set for big things....

Just when I thought it couldn't get any better than this, Jakwob remixes this beauty into a huge dubstep tune. What is so good about this track is that he kept the soft vocals together for the build up and then the drop is savage, lovely stuff. Surely it will follow in the tracks of Caspa's Remix of Deadmua5 and Skream's huge remix of In For The Kill
